hello ireland! :-)

phew......you have no idea how long it took me to log in just to write a few lines in here, considering how long i have been on hiatus. geez luckily i am not a superstitious kinda person otherwise i would have abandoned this entry altogether. well i know, i know, it has been a while and to those who were wondering what has happened to me for all this time let's just say i'm still figuring out my way through this little journey called life.

it's been more than 3 months i'd say since i left Ireland. the land i called home for more than a decade long. to come back at last to my home of my future. it hasn't been an easy ride i gotta say since i set my feet on malaysian ground. of course it made me wonder if leaving Ireland was in fact the right move for me nevertheless i am here and the only thing that left for me to do is just deal with it and make the most of what i have in hand. it made my life a little bit more exciting though. i'm talking about everything. life here is not at all as i expected in every single aspect i could think of. everything is different, the weather, the people, the culture and the most of all the responsibilities. the moment i got home i noticed my responsibilities on my shoulders like a huge rock suddenly fell from the sky with a vengeance i may add for my long period of absence. not necessarily a burden, it depends on how you look at it. at times i can't help but secretly wish that i was back in Ireland. never thought i would see the day i utter those words nevertheless that exactly how i felt in fact still am feeling that way sometimes especially when on the road!.

regret? nah not at all. coming back was just the next step in the game of my life. sooner or later i have to face it. do i miss Ireland? the question that seems quite popular among people here. hmmmmmmmmm............yes, i miss it a lot! you never know what you get till it's gone fellas! that's human nature. of course i do miss it a lot. the customs, the cultures, the weather ( can't you believe it, i miss irish weather!!! it's true), most importantly my friends who have been my family away from home. the laughter, the weekends, the picnics, rollerblading, all those things that we did together i cherish them till the day i die and oh yeah those little kids especially peq no', nattie, aquila and the bee and jesus, how i miss them all!. like it or not things won't be the same anymore no matter how badly we try and hope for them to be like they were. you will know once you guys are back , we will be close and yet it will feel so far away from each other and as a heads up, we definitely lead our own separate lives here! we can't help it but i hope we will still be close in this virtual world. :-)
